If there is anything remotely like a threat of consequences to the US for the withdrawal, all Trump need say is that he will withdraw the US from NATO
and leave Europe open for Russia and/or China.

The sound of collective underwear soiling would be both deafening and hilarious.

Perhaps that is exactly the ultimate plan . By Putin . At NATO's expense , the USA's expense

I dont believe in this global warming BS either, I think we are going through a natural cycle, but man is not helping the situation. It wouldn't hurt
for us to at least cut back on emissions.

The Paris Accord is for suckers. I much prefer Trump's plan to build a wall to keep the climate out.

Just wait until that Wall starts to get built. Man the Left will have Mass Hysteria and shared delusions.

I'm still waiting for Hillary to go to prison, though.

Mass hysteria and shared delusions, indeed.

She threw the DNC under the Bus. I have faith she's going to Prison. The DNC did not care when she was blaming everyone else but now that she's blamed
the DNC lets see if we get a new Seth Rich to leak some files.

She must distance herself from Debbie Wasserman Schultz

Remember she hired DWS onto her Campaign right after DWS was caught in the DNC email scandals

it's going to be fun because the high tech renewable energy jobs and companies will be flocking to non-American shores. That's a great way to bring
down one world government, right? Let's just burn "clean coal" and while we're at it, let's put leaded gas into our tanks too.

WHAT!?!? High tech renewable energy jobs flocking to non-American shores, you say? Will they take their MASSIVE financial losses with
them? www.greentechmedia.com...
$6.4 Billion corporate loss... (that's negative profits for those slow on the uptake) qz.com...
$30 BILLION in losses in Germany www.the-american-interest.com...
Spain subsidizing BILLION per year to keep the green renewables afloat.

And how many jobs are we talking here? www.se4all.org...
This 2016 report estimates this year at 8.1 million jobs GLOBALLY. Oooohhhh!!! Wheeeee!!! 0.11 percent of the world's population is employed in this
field!!!! OMFG!!!! Hell, API estimates 9.2 Million Americans alone work in oil and natural gas (including support operations)
www.api.org...
You honestly expect the USA to keelhaul 3% of our population's income source and productivity to chase the losing dreams of 0.1% of the world's
population? BULLROAR!

You are goddamned right we should be burning clean coal in the USA. Seems to make more sense than selling it to China where it is burned in straight
stacks... at least until those dowry payments from the US and EU show up to pay for updating China to clean coal technology. Which is another issue
here, why in the blue everloving hell should the second largest economy in the world be treated like a vulnerable little waif in a rainstorm?

Leaded gas? Way to go to the most extreme end of the spectrum to make a good example of the ol' black and white falacy.

The "treaty" was bad for America because it caused us to lose our jobs (and we had to pay for the benefit).

185+ countries signed on to the accord and the US was expected to pony up a majority of the funding.

China still has 13 years to pollute at will, while India has 20 years.

The United States (with some of the strictest regulations) bled manufacturing jobs to . . . China and India, While paying into Green Fund (that is
not audited). The funds of which are then dispersed to China and India to allow them to "modernize".

If the Paris agreement is so wonderful for the planet - the European Union will find a way to modernize China and India faster and cheaper, or they
will pay for it themselves.

They are not mad the United States left the "agreement", they are mad the Obama "gifts" will no longer be forthcoming. By "gifts" I mean two
contributions of $500 million to the Green Fund to modernize China and India. The two biggest beneficiaries of American job loses.

I have yet to hear one good reason why we should have ever entered into such an agreement in the first place.

Renewable energy sources has been a small industry...but it has the potential to be a HUGE industry. The only thing that is stopping it is...oh
wait...the oil barons and corporate oligarchy that runs this country. Even China is in on the act of trying to clean up their pollution...Not by big
steps but by little tiny ones. The US just lost a ton of face with the international community about this...

And as of 2014 there were...more people employed in car washes than in the "coal industry" in the USA.
source

Clean coal is a misnomer anyways...they bury the carbon emissions to be exposed later...yeah that's working to save our planet...for the sake of 76k
jobs. Maybe they should find the place you're burying your head in the sand and looking to the past instead of to the future, that would be a great
place to bury their clean coal carbon wastes.

Renewable energies, solar panels, wind energy, tidal electricity...that's where the future is...unless you want to keep poisoning ground water with
fracking waste, poisoning the ground with "clean coal" waste, and poisoning the air with petroleum waste.

And the leaded gas was sarcasm, perhaps that concept is a bit far reaching for someone so uptight???

Trump telling NATO they have to pay up was hilarious in itself.

Yeah it was hilarious Trump showing just how ignorant he is when it came to NATO. What even funnier is his cultist still stupidly cry pay up.

what was so bad about being part of this?

im asking cause i honestly dont know. i just skimmed the wiki article about it

195 countries signed...
theyre all wrong or was it just wrong for us?

The US was handing out free money, of course all the other countries signed up.

The point of the accord was for the world to gang up on the US and shake it like a piggy-bank.

There is nothing in the Accord that the US cannot achieve on its own, its only purpose was to bankroll everyone else. Every time you hear some city
proclaiming that they are "still going to follow the emission reduction goals set out in the Accord" then they are completely proving Trump's point.
If they can do it anyway, why sign up to a scheme that will need them to pay stupid amounts of money to third world countries for nothing?
